C# isn't classic. You have to write your logbuilding programs in VC++, using a .dsw file.

Get the hell out of here with this Norrath Maps bullcrap.

Also you guys are lucky the staff didn't remove the scroll wheel camera. Haynar had that ready to go. I bet if you complain about this hard enough it'll be implemented.

I just log on and ask for group on my enchanter.. if nothing I log on my alt and level him.. more power to you if you have the time but I just don't. I don't understand what your hatred with me is about. I'm just trying to enjoy what little time I have to spend with this game.. less downtime finding my way = more xp with my limited time to play

You keep saying "waste of time". EQ is nothing but a time sink for any of us in any respect of how you play the game (within the rules) (like all other games). Traveling is a time sink, meditating is a time sink, respawns are a time sink, incremental gear upgrades are time sinks, ever increasing xp pools to fill are time sinks, etc.

None of what I've said to you is hate. I'm trying to understand your rationalization of certain aspects of EQ and other games with some good-natured ribbing in between.

It is an awkward position.

Let the map/buff timer programs go and let people have an advantage over those that don't?

Over those that don't ..... care to do it? Know how to do it?

Tough shit!

Maybe they can put a petition together on change.org.

The whole nitpicking of what's classic has been beaten to death. The devs don't spend all their time coding for this box and whatever they can make classic without breaking other things, they will. Not much we can do but to just accept it.

Also the whole counter argument "you should play on 56k modem and CRT if you want classic" is also stupid. That's like someone trying to restore a classic car but has to use modern parts at his local AutoZone but gets hated on because he didn't get the original parts that was produced 20 years ago.

I actually really enjoy using the maps like maps.

I would just like to point out the beautiful lack of Iksar monks in that photo from earlier :~)

Dumb statistically better lizards!

I'm really sorry that we can't actually travel back in time. BELIEVE ME.

Messing with the log file to bar stuff that was perfectly possible to do since the game's release is the wrong way to emulate it.

Link is fixed - for setup, all that's needed is to add a line in settings.lisp file (look at the readme on github).

I went to the page now that I have an idea how to edit the lisp. The instructions of what to do are not up. Did something get changed or deleted?
